Crowd Chants
Crowd chants are off. Knights playing in Colorado and chanting ‘Go Knights Go!’ probably wouldn’t happen. We travel well and it’s appreciated but doubt it would happen. Might look into it. 👍🏻

From what I can tell it usually happens when full pressure is active. Is this related in any way to online play, where it could be built to show support for both players and less immersion? If not, can you confirm what NHL presentation logic or examples this was based off of (usage for all teams)? I can see this concept for how this fits for online play but ultimately it ruins the immersion for offline play, as realistically, there is only a handful of teams that has a fanbase that would do this in the NHL.
Using this concept and how it works for the pressure system (for both teams), what is the point or purpose of home ice advantage, as this seemingly removes it and makes every arena somewhat generic cheers for both teams?
It could be full pressure, a bug, or a strange EA idea. I just played another game tonight. Boston skates down, takes one shot, then there is a face off. Not even enough time for full pressure. Right after the face off, the crowd starts chanting for Boston. As i said above, if anything, the crowd should boo because you're not clearing the puck.

Without seeing the full pressure icon, we can't tell. If you enable it again and this happens before it's full, please get a video and I'll send it over for review.
